what frue Merit win Do.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syrup within few years, has
astoRished the world. 1t is without doubt
the safes tand best remedy ever discover
ed for the speedy and effectual cure of
Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung
troubles. 1t acts on an entirely different
principle from the usual prescriptions
given by Physicians, as it does not dry
up Cough and leave the disease still in
the system, but on the contrary removes
the cause of the trouble, heals the parts
affected and leaves them In a purely
healthy condition. A bottle kept in the
house for use when the diseases make
their appearance, will save doctors bills
and long spell of serious illness A
trial will convince you of these facts. 1t
is positively sold by all druggists and
general dealers in the land. Price, IS
cents, large bottles.

The free delivery department Of the
POstofiicc is quite busy now, making ar
rangements TO carry ont the provisions Of
the law providing for free delivery In all
cities of 10000 inhabitants or over, or
where the postal receipts amount 10 &1O,-
600 or over per year The President sign
ed the bin over week ago. and up to
date only forty out of the hundreds of
cities interested have made application
for the new system. Strange as it may
appear. not an application has come from
the four cities in Maryland which could
get carrier system if they asked for it.
Neither have the congressman made any
inquiries in regard TO the new law The
cities are Cumberland, Annapolis, Hagers-
town and Frederick. Colonel Bates, the
superintendent of the free delivery de-
partment, has sent out instructions to ex-
anime and report the best method of es-
tablishing the system, and he is surprised
that Maryland has not asked for the new
privileges, because Maryland has been so
backward in getting facilities or help
from the government. One of the reasons
against the carrier system advanced by
the inhabitants Of some of the cities, and
a few in Maryland, too, is that the only
excitement of the day is the visit to the
postofiicc for the mail. To large class
of people il means an interchange of Cos
sip and seeing friends. They do not care
to have this done away with. But while
this excuse may be given by the gossips
and ladies of the town, the business men
are in favor Of having their mail deliver
ed. Within the next few days Colonel
Bates expects to hear from Maryland.

Thomas Daly, who killed his hired man, Thomas Murphy, last Thursday in Bolton,
 (see first page), has confessed that he com. mitted the assault. When he found that Oliver o. Johnson, an eye witness of the affair, had told what he saw, Daily made 8 clean breast of it. He says he sent Mur- phy to the house to get monkey wrench with which to fix a blow. Murphy was gone sometime and when he returned to the lot he was so clumsy in trying to fix the blow that Daly grabbed the wrench out of his hand and struck Murphy in the neck. He had no idea he struck so hard, but Murphy fell, from the stepping posi- tion in which he was to the ground and died in short time.
 Daly is now out on bail, justice court having held him for manslaughter in the second degree.

 IA lady who has been quite a traveller, and has keen eye for the picturesque in nature, said to us recently: Your ceme- tery yonder, on that sunny hillside, com handing such wide view, will in time become the pride Of all those who have friends and ancestOrs sleeping there, and in due time sufficient funds will be pro- vided by wealthy out-of-town posterity at least for it's proper care. Wemay add that there never has been the Slightest ef- fort made as yetin this direction. In fact, had not the late Amos Preston organized a force of men some years ago to uproot the fast growing scrub-oakss and brush, the southern part, at least, of this ancient cemetery would now have been an impene- trabie thicket..

 The report of the Massachusetts railroad commissioners on the recent .stin bridge manslaughter near Dedham gees straight to the point They find that the bridge was improperly rebuilt eleven years ago by an incompetknt or negligent contractorl without any intelligent supervision on theI part of the combany that it was never properly tested that the duty of examin- | ing it's conditiot was intrusted during the eleven years to one man, who didn't know his business and that the train which fell through the bridge not only did not have Westinghouse brake in practic Il operation butjdid not have the number of brakemen required by the statute. They very properly remind the legislature that this is the fist fatal train disaster on the Boston & Providence in eighteen years, but they also express belief that this disaster wal perfectly preventible, and they again Jay down the sound principle | that ''a preJentible accident is crime"

At meeting of the First Congrega- tional church society Monday evening, it was voted not to build the proposed busi- ness block but to propose the matter of consolidating with the Second Congrega- tional church, and committee of five was appointed to act with similar committee from the Second Church, should they choose to appoint one. These churches were originally one, but years ago internal troubles caused separation. Most of the members of the churches desire a union, and it will probably be brought about. Both churches are more prosperous finan- cially and in membership than ever before. The current expenses of the First church for the year ending April 1st were entirely met by the pew rentals, with few dollars surplus. And the rentals this year were sufficient to warrant an increase of the pas tors salary. The financial standing of the Second church is such that sufficient mon ey was raised Easter Sunday to make ex- tensive repairs. These churches also made generous contribution to the M. F. church's debt lifting.
